On Thursday October 5th 2017, the crates of the LODE cargo were brought to the Yellow House, the crates opened and the contents unpacked, after a twenty-five year interlude.
The crates were laid out again on the sails from the original performance and carefully examined by the Yellow House.
You can see in the previous post the sails as they were laid out on Hartley Quay in front of Liverpool's Maritime Museum for the performance in 1992, and as they were prepared as the setting for placing the precious cargo by Yellow House, a cargo that had arrived from twenty-two places on a great circle that links Liverpool and Hull with places across the world.
All the contents of this cargo have remained safe and secure.
Wonderful!!!!
Then on Tuesday October 10th Yellow House brought the LODE cargo back to the Bluecoat and placed the crates in the Gallery space so LODE can become Re:LODE in the brilliant exhibition curated by Bryan Biggs; In the Peaceful Dome.
The Re:LODE gallery installation on the morning of October 12th looked like this (see video below). Minor tweaks followed.
